Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

Islam forbids all kinds of false testimony, including creating a false degree, whether it is an academic degree or any kind of certificate, as explained before in Fataawa 96435 and 84382.

You should take lawful measures to ward off the harm that you are suffering from your ex-husband and his wife. You can make a complaint to the concerned authorities about their harm and assault in order to put an end to that harm or do any similar permissible action to stop their harm without resorting to getting a false degree.

Allaah Knows best.
